After the leader finished speaking, several people around him also described what they had seen and heard in Xiangyang City in the past few days. They even drew a rough map of Xiangyang and distributed it to everyone. , for convenience.

"Everyone, memorize this topographic map in your mind. Destroy it on the spot after reading it. Don't leave any traces. Our initial operation time is three days later at night. Now everyone should go back and prepare."

After everyone was sent away, the attic room seemed a little empty.

Suddenly, a gust of night wind blew in through the crack in the window, causing the candlelight to sway violently until it went out with a pop.

The room fell into darkness, but as the moonlight shone in, it was discovered that the table that had just been vacated was actually filled with people again.

These people were all wearing robes and hoods, and were silent, making the atmosphere extremely gloomy.

"Everyone, this is the most important and largest operation of our Tianxiahui in recent years. We must succeed in one blow. While they are creating chaos and taking charge of the frontal battlefield, our mission is to capture Zhao Yi's wife and himself.

The leader of the alliance said that it is best to capture those who can be captured alive. If you cannot capture them, just take back a head. But my opinion is to kill them on the spot and don't think of capturing them alive. This person's methods are cunning and insidious. We have already Many colleagues are in his hands, so this time the organization sends me to lead the team, everyone must unite as one and look down on the fire monkey, especially you. "

The man whose name was called shrugged his shoulders a few times and sneered: "Kui Mulang, why do you order me? We, the Western White Tiger Qisu, are equals. You are only responsible for this operation, and you, Lou Jingou, Wei The Pheasant, the Pleiades Chicken, the Biyuewu, and Zhao Hongfei belong to me, so you are not allowed to snatch them from me, and I will avenge the Ginseng Water Monkey."

The man known as the Fire Monkey passed by everyone present, then stood up, jumped out of the window with a whoop, and disappeared into the night.

It turns out that the six people sitting in this attic are the core members of the Tianxiahui, six of the seven constellations of the Western White Tiger among the twenty-eight constellations.

As for the absent one named Shenshuiyuan, whose real name is Sun Xiang, he was the unlucky guy who tried to ambush Zhao Yi on his way to Jiangdong, but in the end he was burned into black charcoal without even being able to leave his name.

Kuimulang's real name is Li Xiong. He is tall and has extremely broad shoulders. He sighed heavily and said: "This Fire Monkey is still going his own way. Lou Jin Dog and Wei Tu Pheasant, you two keep an eye on him. Don't let him." To alert the enemy before the large forces move."

"Don't worry, Brother Li, leave it to us."

After Kui Mulang finished speaking, two figures, one fat and one thin, stood up one after another and jumped down from the attic window, obviously chasing the fire monkey.

But he said that the Western White Tiger Liusu was hiding in the attic, planning how to attack Zhao Yi and his family, and our Zhonglang General was hiding in another attic not far from the attic. The lights were dark in the room, and he He was holding a night vision binoculars in his hand, and the voice of the other party came from the earphones.

Yes, that's right, he had already found the location of Tianxiahui and installed solar-powered monitoring equipment there in advance.

This epoch-making monitoring method was beyond the ability of these ancients to understand, let alone discover. Every word they said there fell on Zhao Yi's ears, and the latter rolled his eyes.

"Damn, what the hell? You're a wolf, a dog, a chicken, and a monkey, and you're opening a zoo with me? And you dare to take advantage of my wife. No one from these guys can leave alive."

The Tianxiahui spent a lot of effort this time and even sent out all the power of the Western White Tiger to attack Qisu. However, they never expected that their every move would be known to the enemy before the operation even started. There was no secret at all.

Three days passed by in a blink of an eye. On the night when the Tianxiahui was about to take action, a dark cloud came uninvited and blocked the bright moon in the sky, plunging the entire Xiangyang City into darkness.

"Well...the dark clouds cover the moon tonight, which is a good time to kill people and set fire. It seems that even God is helping us."

Before taking action, the steward of Tianxiahui looked up at the moon covered by dark clouds and smiled proudly.

The men who were all hiding and pretending to be traders from the chamber of commerce all tore off their disguises at this moment, put on night clothes, carried swords in hand, and carried crossbows on their backs, and gathered together with murderous intent.

"Everyone, this operation can only succeed and cannot fail. But I think it will be difficult for us to fail even if we want to. After these three days of observation, I also feel that the rumors about Zhao Yi and Zhao Hongfei are getting more and more outrageous. His military management is The level is very average, not as powerful as the legend says, but I was overly worried."

The leader of the caravan has been observing the changing of patrol soldiers and even real-time training at the school grounds for the past three days.

He hid in the dark and observed for three days. These people were lazy and poorly trained. He really couldn't figure out how Zhao Yi could capture Jiangling and Xiangyang with such soldiers. Or is Cao Ren and his soldiers even worse?

This thought only flashed through his mind, and was quickly interrupted by others.

"Sir, Xiangyang City is temporarily repairing the streets today. Barrier horses have been installed at many intersections, and the ground has been dug up. It is said that they need to be re-paved with stone slabs. Our original attack route has been blocked in several places."

"What? Temporary road repairs? What the hell is Zhao Hongfei doing?"

Inexplicably, the steward of Tianxiahui saw a wooden sign handed to him by his subordinates, with the words "Pedestrians Avoiding Pavement Maintenance" written on it.

He threw the wooden sign aside and snorted coldly: "Don't worry about this, proceed according to our originally planned route, target Xiangyang Garrison, take action!"

Wow.

After the leader gave the order, the disguised caravan of up to 600 people began their operation.

During the march, these six hundred people divided into three groups, each group consisting of two hundred people, and each group moved toward the garrison in the city to surround them.

They ignored the horse barrier set up in the middle of the road and the "Road Maintenance" sign, and continued to move forward quickly along the original route.

In the process, they perfectly avoided the routes used by night patrol soldiers, but they still inevitably encountered two watchmen. Of course, this was not a big deal to Tianxiahui, it was just that there were two more watchmen. Just an innocent soul.

They moved away from their horses and walked quickly across the dug road, approaching the Xiangyang garrison at the fastest speed and the shortest distance.

They also got news that tonight Zhao Yi would entertain middle-level generals at the garrison. It seemed that it was because he had another concubine. This guy was quite romantic, so let him enjoy more before he died.

But as they walked, they noticed something was wrong. In places where road maintenance was blocked by the horse, there was a lot of sticky stuff on the ground. They didn't feel anything when they first stepped on it, but as time went by, everyone felt it. It became more and more difficult to walk. The sticky substance on the soles of the feet was sticky to the feet. Some people even walked so fast that their shoes became sticky.

"Damn, what is on the ground? You can't stop, keep going!"
